Smart Embedded Network of Sensing Entities
Project Objectives
- To create a system in which distributed embedded devices cooperate to form and maintain a self-consistent global world view from local sensor information and which is robust to the addition and removal of devices from the network. SENSE will address the following scientific and technological objectives:
- To understand how to build networked systems of embedded components that can dynamically and automatically re-configure themselves
- To understand how to convert low-level local information to semantic knowledge
- To understand how to use semantic-level knowledge for network-centric computation
- To understand how perception and information processing can be combined using low-level and high-level feature fusion
- To understand how to facilitate networks of heterogeneous devices using a high-level semantic layer
